PHOTO CONTEST 
In order to stimulate interest in growing Iris to the greatest perfection and 
to obtain a number of good photographs, we are this year offering a prize of 
$10.00 in Iris rhizomes for the best photo submitted by one of our customers. 
There are no set rules in the contest. Any of our customers may send photos 
of any type of Iris. Photos should be clear and show details of the flower. 
Single spikes are preferable, but a full view of the plant in bloom will be accepted. 
Photos may be taken by yourself or by a photographer, but this should not dis¬ 
courage anyone from taking their own pictures as the perfection of the spike 
or plant will count quite as much as the photo itself, except that it must be 
reasonably good. 
In addition to the first prize, we shall give roots to the value of $2.50 to 
each other contestant sending a photo which can be used in our next year’s 
catalog.
